not everyone thinks california should switch to winter blend so soon when temperatures can still be on the high side. just this week parts of the state suffered through a heat wave when summer fuels can help fight off health damaging pollution. >> the cleaner gasoline is a key control measure. it cuts the emission that is causes smog and sends people to hospitals and emergency rooms. >> with the exxon factory back on line, supplies should increase. wholesale prices dropped 40 do 350 cents but it won't be reflected at the pump until next week so expect prices to stay high a few more days. long-term the oil industry said california needs to expand infrastructure, build nor refineries, pipeline and storage but that's not as easy as it seems. >> the difficulty is californians johnly love their environment and don't want to degrade that environment. on the other hand, they want to have cheap gas. so this is a conflict.

we have the story from livermore. >> the livermore valley is home to huge wineries with facilities meant to be tourist attractions as well. that's not exactly the description for valor winery. it's run by a 27-year-old former marine who puts out about 3,000 cases a year. this will become a cianti. >> i just fell in love with wine making and grape pruning and driving tractors and all the fun, dirty work out there in the field. >> but josh lane isn't just satisfying that love. in five years he's also put 53 other veterans to work here full time and part-time because he knows those men need work and need someone who understands the lingering effects of war. josh himself was shot, stabbed and suffered hearing loss after a roadside bomb damaged his vehicle. >> i've had wives e-mail me and

come to me and say thank you for what you are doing. my husband or boyfriend comes home at night, he's tired, he's not angry anymore, he sleeps at night. you know, when i hear that, then that tells me i'm doing my job. >> gordon wags in the army in the mid-80s but had his struggles as well. >> went through hard times, foreclosed on a home and had to move on. that's when i moved out here to livermore and i was blessed to find josh. >> the winery bobly contains medals and photos from iraq. the history of the marine corps sits besides a book on making wine. josh not only puts vets to work, he encourages them to stop in and getting help on getting benefit issues settled. he correction me when i refer to him as an eczema reason. >> i'm a sergeant in the united states marine corps, just serving in a different uniform. >> in livermore, tim daily, news 10. >> i have a friend who says once a marine, always a marine.

all right. what's going on weather-wise around here? >> we are looking at fog in the north bay. visibility reduced in novato to less than a quarter mile. but elsewhere it looks pretty good. in the city you will notice that is looks nice and clear. the sun is up at 7:10. setting 6:44. but santa rosa reporting half-mile visibility. sfo8 miles and we are looking at patchy fog throughout mill valley, the waldo grade, and also the golden gate bridge. so live doppler 7 hd shows some of the clouds moving into the peninsula and the south bay so we will call it partly cloudy overall and a mix of clouds and sun once again today. temperatures running a little cool for this time of year but probably getting used to that. take a look in napa and santa rosa. mid-40s this morning. very chilly. we have 60 in antioch, 50 at the coast, 57 in oakland, as well as redwood city and 58 in mountain view. partly cloudy this morning. a sun-cloud mix with a chance of showers mainly over the higher

elevations monday and tuesday. kind of backing off on the shower chances. this area of low pressure will stay offshore throughout the weekend. it's an upper level low and as it stays offshore, it will spill some clouds into the state from time to time. this morning low 0s in the sierra nevada. so it's chilly from truckie to blue canyon, the tahoe valley airport. mid-60s for the afternoon with low 80s fresno, upper 70s sacramento. along the coast it will be mild with numbers in the 60s there. and we will look for temperatures around the bay today to be comfortable with the numbers really not where they should be, but overall it looks like this area of low pressure visiting much of southern california throughout the latter part of the week and for us maybe higher elevation raindrops. golden gate park, a few clouds from time to time and low 60s. we will call it partly cloudy from 1:00 to 4:00 for the hardly strictly blue grass festival. we also have the blue angels in town and temperatures should be in the mid-60s with 70s around

concord today, as well as livermore. low 70s palo alto. 73 in san jose. 68 in oakland. you have to go far north up towards clear lake and ukiah to get the mid-70s. 75 morgan hill with monterey coming in in the 60s and no fog along the central coast. if you are planning your day, when you head out throughout much of downtown san francisco will be in the 60s, mid-60s for the afternoon. i almost fell. harry is tripping me. [laughter] >> not guilty, your honor! >> it's my shoe, i suppose, and the chair. notice the numbers, really they don't fluctuate too much. the slight chance of showers with more cloud cover monday and tuesday and that brings the numbers down a couple degrees. then back to fair and mild with 60s and 70s. i don't know what my problem is. maybe another cup of coffee. >> or maybe too much. we don't know which way it's going. lisa, thanks a lot and thank you for not falling. the new i-phone has sold

millions but is it worth the money? we have brand new consumer report test results on the i-phone 5. it's now as fast as the fastest android phones but there are still plenty of differences. i love that. >> the headphone jack is going to be on the bottom. >> in this tv commercial, samsung makes fun of apple fans, claiming that android phones have had better features and capabilities than the i-phone 5 for ages. >> finally getting everything that we didn't get last year. >> back in the lab consumer reports put all the phones through the pays, assessing each phone's features and options. first display. everyone wants a big screen to watch movies, play games and use apps. while the i-phone 5 screen is apple's biggest yet, it can't compare with the screens on many android phones. >> voice control is another area of competition. here android capabilities are quite good so they are no match tore suri who can understand and

execute more complex commands. >> find me a theater that's playing a bruce willis movie. >> okay, i found some theaters not far from georgeers. >> next up. navigation. >> android has better map info and more and apple has a few glitches. until that is worked out android carries the day. >> with everyone using the phone to take pictures, how does it affect your apple or android choice? while both the i-phone and some android phones have the ability to take panoramic stills, consumer reports finds when it comes to photo and video quality, the i-phone 5 outperforms the android competition. >> let me check some restaurants online. >> but if you want to talk on the phone and connect to the internet over the cellular network at the same time? all 4g phones can do that but on the i-phone 5 on verizon or sprint. so while the i-phone 5 gets many things right, so do a lot of the top-rated android phones, making them worth consideration.
